PRO-2004: 1986 vintage. Top of the line, wide band scanner
for 1987. After a diode is cut, enjoy continuous coverage
from 25-520 and 760-1300 MHz, AM, NBFM, and WBFM. Has 300
channels in 10 banks of 30, backed up by conventional 9 volt
alkaline battery. Any channel can be designated the
priority channel. Scans and searches fast. Lots of well
designed features, like 10 pairs of search limits, Lockout
Review, default search increment and emission mode. Sound
Squelch allows skipping dead carriers during search or scan.
Metal cabinet, good internal construction and shielding, but
no mobile mounting bracket or DC power cord. Soft touch
membrane keyboard. Good sensitivity and selectivity. Very
good radio. See "Product Review: The Radio Shack PRO-2004
Programmable Scanner," by Bob Parnass AJ9S, in The Radio
Enthusiast, February 1987, and Monitoring Times, March 1987



I bought one when they came out. Nice scanner. Possible to overload
the front end with overly strong signals, with a big antenna, notch
filter can help.
